Finishers Summer Bash 4 Preview: Title Fights, Free Stream & Musikfest Weekend

Finishers Summer Bash 4 goes down at 11 AM EST on Sunday, August 10, and for the first time, the event will be streamed completely free on FloGrappling’s YouTube channel.

Hosted in Bethlehem, PA, this event is scheduled during the city’s iconic Musikfest weekend, offering fans a unique mix of world-class grappling and music-festival energy. With three title fights and an exciting slate of undercard matchups, this Summer Bash looks to continue the momentum from Money in the Bank.

Title Fight: 170lbs – Jordan Juliano vs Derin Yusufi

This one isn’t about tempo, both athletes bring plenty of it. The real contrast lies in style. Jordan Juliano (10P Bethlehem) brings a wrestling-heavy approach, looking to dominate positions and grind out submissions. Derin Yusufi (Bergen County BJJ), by contrast, represents the new school of BJJ: high-paced, flowy, and constantly transitioning. It’s a battle between pressure and precision, and the outcome might set the tone for future 170lb matchups.

Title Fight: 115lbs – Alex Nguyen vs Nicole Bye

Alex Nguyen (Standard Jiu Jitsu) returns to defend her title for the first time since October 2024. Her calculated pressure and ability to chain submissions make her a dangerous champion to dethrone. Nicole Bye (Quintella MMA) enters the match on a three-fight win streak with Finishers, bringing strong positional awareness and consistency to the division. Expect a highly technical exchange with plenty of movement and grip battles.

Title Fight: 145lbs (Vacant) – Efrain Garcia vs Nick Digiacomo

With the 145lb strap up for grabs, Efrain Garcia (New Asgard Martial Arts) is on a mission. After a recent win at Fury Pro Grappling and a big weekend at NAGA, he’s looking to become the first standout competitor from his new gym. Garcia is quick, aggressive, and always hunting subs.

But he’ll have his hands full with Nick Digiacomo (Webb BJJ / Illuminati Grappling Club), who’s coming off a finalist performance at Money in the Bank and is one of the highest-paced grapplers on the circuit. His movement, unpredictability, and relentless pressure make him a nightmare to gameplan for. He'll be cornered by Jay Regalbuto, one of the region’s top BJJ minds. This one could be chaos in the best possible way.

Main Card Highlights

• Vanessa Comeau (Bodega BJJ) vs Madeline Avila (Crazy 88) — Two proven competitors clash at 145lbs. Expect strong positional awareness and sharp defense on both sides.

• Gabriella Bermudez (Bergen County BJJ) vs Alysa Couce (Freedom Jiu Jitsu/ Jits and Giggles Podcast) — Bermudez brings a fast, aggressive guard, while Couce will likely look to implement her top-heavy, pressure-based game. Clash of styles here.

• Ezra Outlaw (Renzo Gracie PA) vs George Whitehead (B-Team NJ) at 215lbs — A big-man battle with surprising speed and mobility from both athletes. Someone might go flying.

• Keith Highfield (Collective Jiu Jitsu) vs Cory Kennedy (10P Reading) at 155lbs — Highfield is back and looking to win big, while Kennedy's slick guard and transitions could catch people off guard.

• Nate Chappell (10P Bloomsburg) vs Jack Sudduth (Calvert MMA) — A clash between two gritty competitors who push a steady pace and like to wear opponents down. Expect positional battles and plenty of exchanges on the feet and in transition.

• Savion Maranon (Notorious MMA) vs Eli Flores (10P Reading) at 170lbs — A solid matchup between two rising competitors looking to build momentum in the division.

• John "Jack" Reynolds (Vault Jiu Jitsu) vs Nick Willey (Sharpshooters) at 185lbs — This is your sleeper match. Willey brings strong wrestling, while Jack favors an unorthodox, submission-heavy guard, featuring techniques like the hindulotine. Clash of grappling philosophies here. Calling it now...this one ends in a sub.

• Stephen Eisner (Titan Jiu Jitsu) vs Asher May (Crazy 88 / TLI) — This teen match is one to watch. Eisner has made huge strides in recent years and isn’t afraid to scrap. BJJ runs in the family and he’ll be cornered by his father. May is a sharp competitor from a respected team, and straight ankle locks and knee bars are in play.

• TJ Salas (GTG Gym) vs Jonathan Lopez at 155lbs — Lopez is coming off a strong showing at Money in the Bank and kicks off the card against a strong, athletic Salas. This one could set the tone for the entire day.
